Foo - OH MY FRIGGEN....Thank you my Dear Sweet Lord Jesus.

I got invited to drive an LFA on Infineon speedway!!!

Not sure when it's going to happen but I'm on the second list!! http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o286/Flycrow/97708cb6.gif A small group of my friends on the first list got to play with Scott Pruett (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Pruett) and a couple of LFAs. :D

Scott drove the gray one, guests drove the yellow one.

My guy friend (who helps me with my IS mods) driving the LFA. Not allowed to go past the blue Lexy, Scott is in that car leading. Love the way the paddle shifts.

This post makes me what to start playing Grand Turismo 5 again.

I've done it before without in the Camaro with SCCA and with the RZ. They always do an inspection prior.

That's awesome!!! I got to go in a ZR-1 Corvette last year on the Pocono Speedway about 170mph. Rocks!!!

Have fun and take super lots of pics!

Very Nice!!!!

What does the LF in LFA stand for? The A is obviously for Arse.

Lexus Fast Arse?

It's still Sears Point to me!

Have fun.

NICE!!

Those are sexy cars, plus from the videos I've seen I bet they sound beautiful. Me jealous.

Nice!

You skipped on the most fun corners at Sears Point... :innocent:

Never before have I been accused of being too subtle. Oh my.

If it's any consolation - I got it.

Make sure you put a Yakima or Thule on it and bring your bikes along. It will be the special LFA Moots edition.

Oh I got it too. I'm just concerned about the insurance waiver. I can cover $375k for the car but not a body. Never enough on a body.

I can't believe I didn't see this. The L stands for Lexus. The F is representative of the first turn in Fuji Speedway in Japan. The design of the F logo (F sport) is shaped like the turn on the speedway. The A is A - Concept, which blossomed from the original design coming from the Lexus ISF, which is one step up from the car I currently have. My next car will be the ISF hopefully in 2014 after the redesign has taken place.

Too many nanny computers for my taste. A track car shouldn't have a computer for anything except the timing and fuel system, and those are optional.

I would kill to take one of these around a track:

Would someone please let me borrow their Caterham Super 7?

Naw Dog, this is how I roll:

I'd like to see the GTR version of the LFA.

more so, I'd like to see what the teams would add and remove from the stock configuration.

Cool stuff Siu. Goodness, what fun. I loved the Top Gear LFA test.

There are two of them parked at The Driveway, where we have our weekly crit here in Austin. I can't stand seeing them while I ride a vehicle that's never been over 40mph there.

Jealous, I work for Lexus and may not even see one in person! ISF's on the other hand...

Pretty sure I could take you in my CX-7. :p

So, Lexus fanboys... is the HS250H a Prius for people too rich for a Prius? A Prius for people who want to feel even better about themselves? I saw one today and I am curious.

HS250h is not on the same chassis as a Prius. It also has a larger motor and more toys. Just another choice, several of my fellow co workers drive them and like them a lot. I am thinking of a ct200h myself, much closer to a prius really but a lot better looking.

Intriguing. What chassis is it on, then?

The Avensis I believe, but they don't share much I am sure.

:love: Mmmm, the Avensis. We were in Norway a few years ago and one of Mrs. A's relatives had an Avensis wagon. What a nice car, and MUCH better looking than the Camrys and Corollas of today.

250h ~ Camry Hybrid
200h ~ Prius

And where is the clip of Siu driving?

How many mpg's does it get?

Pcad are you sure you what a Prius, not sure that you will fit in with the other owners?

It also does not qualify for a clean pass https://www.nysdot.gov/programs/clean-pass

How many gpm does it get?

FIFY Pcad.
